Born to Mohini Singh at Jai Devi Hospital in the city of Agra, the two infants were attached at the chest and shared one liver. The children had four hands, four legs and two heads.

Seperating the children would have been expensive to afford as their father is reportedly a labourer. Getting the children operated at an expensive hospital could not have been afforded by the parents.

The twins suffered a cardiac attack on Friday and they were being carried to AIIMS in Delhi. The attempts for their revival turned futile before the children could reach Delhi. Their bodies have thence been taken to their native place Sirsaganj.
